Description:
This USED Savage Model 99F rifle was manufactured in 1961 and has quite a history. The model 99 or 1899 as it's also known was preceded by the Model 1895, which was the first hammerless lever-action rifle produced. A hammerless action was useful as it reduces the lock time which allows the rifle to be fired more accurately and is less likely to jam in brush or snag in clothing. The 1895 and 1899/99 models use an internal rotary magazine to hold the cartridges, using a spring-loaded spool with grooves. The 1899/99 models added a counter to the spool to indicate how many rounds are loaded. This design allowed the use of spitzer bullets, which could not be used in the Winchester rifles of the times because the pointed tips in the tubular magazines could cause accidental discharge. This gave Savage a lead in producing rifles that could handle high velocity smokeless powder cartridges with bullets offering flatter trajectories than other lever-action designs. This model 99 is chambered for the common .308 Winchester cartridge and features a 22-inch high-pressure proof tested barrel, a case-hardened lever/action, jeweled bolt, thumb tang safety and an extra LYMAN adjustable peep sight aperture. This rifle will make a great addition to any Savage collection or as hunting rifle with another lifetime's worth of use left in it. This was the top-of-the-line rifle during its heyday and its rotary internal magazine was revolutionary. This is a true vintage rifle worth picking up! .308 Winchester
